Five stars, again and again — for the house, the location, and everything there is to do on the doorstep.
"The most special place we have ever stayed. Gwynfryn has a soul you feel the moment you walk in — old photographs in the lounge, the river running past, the mountains all around. We walked to a different empty beach every day and still didn't see them all. We've already booked to come back."
"A house full of character and the most breathtaking location. Ten of us, three floors, two log fires — and the natural swimming hole on the Artro five minutes from the door. Magical."
"We came for the mountains and fell in love with the beaches. Shell Island, Portmeirion, Snowdonia all within minutes. The house itself is grand yet so welcoming. Faultless."
"Three generations under one roof and not a single dull moment. Paddleboarding at sunset, the steam railway, a wild swim in the river, then home to the snug with a glass of wine. The kitchen takes a crowd beautifully. Gwynfryn is somewhere you experience North Wales at its very best."
"Endless golden sand, crystal water and barely another soul, even in August. Back at the house, the history in the lounge kept the children fascinated for hours. A proper escape."
"Walks from the front door, Harlech Castle up the road, the Roman Steps, golf at Royal St David's — and the most comfortable, characterful house to come home to each evening. We can't recommend it highly enough."
"The location is simply unbeatable: mountains, rivers, forests and beaches all within easy reach. We swam in the Artro, climbed Cadair Idris, and watched the weather roll across the bay. Gwynfryn is a once-in-a-lifetime find we'll return to year after year."
